What *I* get annoyed at is the attitude that just because some people in
the world pay for Internet by the byte, that it's somehow wrong in
principle to *ever* use technology like html e-mail. What if I want to
send a nicely formatted message -- complete with pictures of the kids --
to my sister in Washington? We both have fast, all-you-can-eat access,
decent computers, and up-to-date technology.
Hey, great way to spread viruses and worms! Go for it! Of course, unless
I know the person sending me the email, and they tell me what the
picture is, I won't even look at a graphic - most damn spams are HTML,
and (unless you've got your mailtool set to deny), will d/l a picture,
or a worm, from a Website....
To be blunt, I don't give a shit what it looks like, what I care about
is what you have to *say*. All style and no content is the definition of
vapid and shallow.
